The HTC U11 was announced today in Singapore. The HTC U11 stand out feature is the squeezable edge, letting you take selfies or access your favourite apps just by squeezing the sides of the phone. But that’s not all, the HTC U11 IS a flagship that comes with 128GB of storage and a top end camera.(more…)

The Chuwi Hi10Pro is a dual boot Windows 10 / Android tablet that has a metallic keyboard dock to convert it to a standard clamshell laptop.

I bought the Chuwi Hi10Pro last year when it was on sale at Gearbest. It was selling for US$169 for the tablet plus keyboard dock. I also used Swagbucks for an additional 4250 SB which should be valued at around US$50 via Amazon gift cards. The issue is that I can’t seem to pass the US only verification as it requires a US number (non-voip). Bummer. I managed to get around it recently through the use of a US SIM. So how did this US$120 tablet / laptop fare?

The Sony Xperia XZ Premium will be available for pre-order from 26 May to 9 June at Sony Stores, Sony Centres and on Lazada Singapore website.

As part of the launch promotion, customers who pre-order the Xperia XZ Premium will be able to receive a promotion bundle (worth > $200) that includes a Sony High Resolution noise cancelling in- ear headphones (MDR-EX750NA), USB charging dock (DK60) and a clear style cover.

The Sony Xperia XZ Premium, the World’s fastest smartphone with a 4K HDR Display, and World’s first Super slow motion video in a smartphone, comes with features and technology that include:

The G6 is LG’s best phone yet. Equipped with an immersive display, the G6 improves on the best feature of the LG G5 while cherry picking the popular features from other Android phones. It’s a more conservative approach, but it’s a pretty awesome package.

The Samsung Galaxy S8 will be a compelling choice, but the LG G6 is a viable alternative too.

Here are 3 reasons why I prefer the LG G6:

A more useful camera. The dual lens setup on the LG G6 offers so much more versatility as compared to the Galaxy S8. The traditional normal field of view shooter will hold its own too.

It’s easier to hold. The Galaxy S8 is definitely prettier, and more polished in terms of overall build. The LG G6 isn’t it’s equal but still manages to hold it’s own. I used a S7 Edge previously, and honestly, using it near the edges wasn’t the best experience.It’s also much easier to apply proper tempered glass protectors and cases than the S8

Price and value. The LG G6 is cheaper than the S8 and S8 plus by about $150 to $300 and there is an ongoing promotion of a 49” LG TV with signup of a broadband plan. There’s also an additional 12 month warranty too.(more…)
